OLD MILL GOLF COURSE

This municipal gem threads through mature cottonwoods and follows the natural contours of Mill Creek, creating elevation changes that are rare for Salt Lake Valley public golf. The back nine climbs into the foothills where tee shots must carry native scrub oak, while the front nine demands precision around creek crossings that come into play on five holes. At 6,000 feet, the thin air adds 10% to every club, turning what looks like a gentle parkland layout into a surprisingly demanding test of course management.
